Big Ass Fear

I'm somewhat frightened of bugs, but only when they crawl on me or menacingly chase me into a corner. The house spider here in Seattle is a giant brown hairy monster that has relegated more than one pair of my shoes to the dust bin post-encounter.

Then there are scary movies, bad dreams and the smell of gin...all give me goose bumps, but generally the feeling is passing. Sometimes I think of what it would be like to loose my mom and live in this world alone.

But today, the thing the scares the crap out of me to the point that I've cancelled all my colonic appointments for the foreseeable future is the prospect of riding my bike in the STP.

Screw you Betagal and your crazy "to do" list!!!
